History[]
The Swarm[]
Captain Nikula was ordered by Norja Ramdakan to investigate a Kuiper Belt asteroid that had been targeted by a Formic miniship. After traveling to the location of the asteroid, they saw that the KBO was not there. The crew of the Gungnir investigated the area, finding smaller fragments of the rock and concluded that the asteroid had been blown apart two weeks prior to their arrival with explosives.[1]
After compiling this information, he sent a holo to Lem Jukes explaining their findings.[1]
